Four of the RAF's Andover CC Mk 2s were loaned to the Queen's Flight. Two (XS789 and XS790) were delivered straight from the production line. XS793 came from the Middle East Communications Squadron in 1968. The fourth, XS794, was an Abingdon VIP aircraft that was loaned to Queen's Flight on several occasions. The Andovers were gradually replaced by BAe-146s beginning in 1986.

Running up the engine outside Air BC's hangar, this Beaver was registered to the airline, but did not received their colors. Possibly leased to Air Nootka when photographed, it was certainly with that airline later. The aircraft is currently flying in Quebec at the time of uploading.

The third use of this registration on a CP Air/Canadian Airlines Flagship. First was CP Air's 747-217 in 1974, which was traded to Pakistan for a DC-10 that became the second. The 747-475 was delivered February 15, 1991 and named after bush pilot and Pacific Airlines founder Russ Baker. After merging with Air Canada in 2001, the airliner was withdrawn in May 2005.

Air West's C-FOCJ emerged from a 1979 accident rebuild in this new color scheme. Shortly after this photo was taken, the airline completed the purchase of several small coastal airlines and merged them all with Air West to form Air BC with this color scheme. This Beaver is currently with Harbour Air, now registered C-FFHA, at the time of uploading.
